As I moved into my mid-40s, I could clearly feel my face starting to sag. One day my daughter looked at my face and said, “Mom, I think I can see your nasolabial folds a bit.” I usually did not worry about it much, but after hearing that, I kept noticing it every time I looked in the mirror, so I started looking into thread lifting. I happened to find this hospital on Instagram. The price burden was relatively small, and because it is in Gangnam, I thought the doctor must have a lot of experience since so many people probably get procedures there, which caught my interest. While researching the hospital, I also watched the doctor’s YouTube videos, and they gave me a sense of professionalism, so I decided to go for a consultation. During the consultation, they looked at my face right away and immediately pointed out what the problem areas were, which made me trust them. From the moment I entered the hospital until the procedure itself, the staff were very kind, and the overall system felt well organized. It was my first time having it done under sedation, but I did not feel anxious or tense. And the most important part: the result! It has been about a week since the procedure, and from immediately afterward I could feel my face being pulled tighter, and my jawline also looked more defined than before. Comparing photos, I could clearly see that the sagging in the lower part of my face had improved, so I am personally very satisfied. I liked that it was not a dramatic change, but rather a neat overall refinement of the facial line. What was funny was my husband’s reaction. At first he looked at my face and said, “Did you shave down your jaw?” lol Since he is a man, he had no idea what I had done.. I told him I had gone to a plastic surgery clinic in Gangnam, lol. It was so funny. People around me also asked, “What did you do?” a few times, so I realized it was not just my imagination. 😆 It has only been a week since the procedure, but I think most of the swelling has already gone down. For those in their mid-40s or older who are starting to worry about natural facial sagging or the area around the nasolabial folds, thread lifting might be worth trying once. At first I felt a bit resistant to thread lifting, but after actually getting it done, I was more satisfied than I expected. What I liked most was that it refined things naturally without being excessive. I am happy with this result, so I plan to keep checking my face and manage it periodically with thread lifting in the future. 😊
